This project might not sound as part of the syllabus conducted by the Taylor's University. It, however, adopted as part of the assessment as it creates environmental awareness and appreciation towards nature, culture and people. Besides, the aim of this project is to increase the awareness of current environmental issues among students and from there, we are expected to realize the significant of maintaining a green environment in the place where we are living now.
As for the submission requirement, we are to choose 4 photos and send them via email to the organizing committee and a set of hardcopy to our lecturer. Together with my coursemates, we went to Sekinchan to take some photos as that place is quite far from the city and it's more greenery. However, I did take some pictures when I was back in my hometown. So, there should be no big similarities of the photos and the messages to convey among me and my colleagues.

As an architecture student, we are to build for a better tomorrow, which this includes preserving and protecting our environment from any pollutions or any damages. We ought to study the concept of environment and ecological sustainability which by then, we can learn the effects of growth from our mother nature.
